How to create a new user in OFS?

This covers how an Administrator creates a new system user in Fusion Manager and assigns them a role.

Only OFS Administrator users can access Fusion Manager and create new users.

Step 1 — Open Users & Operators

From the left menu, select Users & Operators and make sure you're on the System Users tab.

Step 2 — Start a new user

Click New User in the top right corner.


Step 3 — Fill in the user's details

Enter the following:

  • Name
  • Login
  • Password
  • Email (optional)
  • Title (optional)
 

 

Step 4 — Assign a role

Choose the role that matches what this person needs to do in OFS:

  • Administrator — maximum privileges, including editor and administrative access.
  • Analytics User with Editor — can view all data and use the edit tools that modify recorded data in OFS.
  • Analytics User — can view all data and interact in limited ways, such as leaving comments.

Step 5 — Save the new user

Click Save.

For more detail on what each role can do, see the OFS Roles Guide.
